GREENWOOD CLUB NO. l.

This club met, February 10Th,
with a large attendance. The sub
.ject under discussion was CONNER
cial fertilizers, compost, barnyard
manure, and the purchase Of COM
mercial fertilizers" Our motto is,
buy less guano, buy it at club rates
or not at all, make more manure at
home and use what we buy in con-
nectlon with it, if we can buy on
satisfactory terms. There is a pro-
gressive spirit rapidly developing
among the farmers OF this section
on the subject of home manures,
propositions for competitive con-
tests, yield per acre, cost Of culture,
&C., Of which | will give you further
particulars hereafter.
Our club now numbers, officers
excepted, ffty-one. The following
are the officers:
Presidential. w. Graham.
Vice President-W. D. Graham.
Secretary-Dr. John l.. Cox.
Treasurer-A. HI. Groce.
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.-J. w.
Burns, J. D. Cox, J. M. Caster, NAL
cum Mann, W. A. J. Thomas.
We r using II greatest efforts
with all of our fellow farmers to Or
ganizc and consolidate in one mass,
and then what a power we may
WELD. We have had several appli-
cations from colored farmers for
membership but declined, believing
that they could control their own
color better than we could. But we
would aid them in organizing and
encourage them-get them to perse-
vere in we'll doing. We want better
plans and more of them. We are
trying to induce each and every
member to take THE PROGRESSIVE
FARMER. We must read and think
and make practical application of
our knowledge.

New REsERvo1R.-The people of Salem
do not make much fuss nor splutter, but
when they want to do anything they go
right along and do it. The water-works

north end of the lot on which the resi-.

TO WHOM 1T MAY CONCERN.

We, the undersigned citizens of
Forsyth and adjoining counties,
having each purchased Of the sales
men Of the Wrought Iron Range
Company, of St. Louis, Mo-, n of
their celebrated Home Comfort
Cooking Ranges. take great pleasure
in recommending them to our friends
and neighbors. Having given them
a fair trial, we pronounce them a
grand ucces and in every respect
a. good as represented by the sales
men. We are perfectly satisfied with
our purchase. We believe them to
be superior in every way to cast
iron stoves and in the long run
much the cheapest. In addition to
their good baking qualities and econ
omy of fuel, they furnish the great
est abundance of hot water, which
is a very great convenience. In
conclusion will say, buy a Home
Comfort Range and we will guaran-
tee you will not regret the purchase.
Very respectfully,
